"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

She gave threw it in the bag without ringing it up, gave me a look and I smiled. Going into this purchase I was in a very quiet non-pick-up mood. She was hot but I noticed a rainbow belt, so I figured she was gay.

I said "The last person that did that for me. . I got their number" and she laughed and said "Well you don't get mine. . . . I have a boyfriend"

I just smiled and said thank you very much, the last girl that did that for me was 19 (I'm 17) and things turned out great the two times we hung out (all available in my threads of the past), then I ended up finding out I was just a flesh dildo. :yes:
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Pickup has that unintended consequence of making people cool and more social. I get discounts, freebies, and comped bennies all the time just from being social with staff, whether it be at a bar, Macy's, Autozone, etc. It's amazing how easy it is to talk to people. Just lead the conversation and be nice. It stuns me to this day how few people are really like this. You'd think everyone would say it, but they dont. Something as simple as "Busy day, eh?" and they usually light up and start talking.

To overcome my extreme shyness since the summer i've been starting conversations with people. Stores that i go to are alot of times never packed or even have long lines so cashiers/employees (mostly female) just stand there bored out of their minds.
Most of the time when i've talked to people they're all ears with a big smile on their face, they wanted to be pulled away from their dull environment.

All I get is hoodrats and trashy chics giving me free fries all the time. Well, not any more, no more fat food...I mean fast food for me.

But seriously, having convos with people on a regular basis will get you so much. So many customer service people have to deal with attitudes and complaints all day they love to see someone who is pleasant and actually interested in them, they will bend over backwards for you.

Looks like you shrugged off the 'ol stinkin' thinkin'. Good job.

I used this and got a number! it can be really easy, most staff just want some human conversation, obviously they're sick n tired of bull **** complaints and ignorant arragont customers.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I agree with what you said, but isn't it ironic that pickup leads you to "be nice". When one of the first things they tell you is not to be the "nice guy". Things come full circle, I guess.

Noone tells you not to be nice, they tell you not be someone girls think of as a 'nice guy.' There's a BIG difference.
